16 Jan 09 Microsoft to Limit Windows Mobile Phones Unless It Won’t
If you remember Microsoft position on the future of Windows Mobile phones than get ready for a different opinion. Microsoft’s intentions seemed to indicate a future limitation of Windows Mobile phones in order to focus better on the OS and the handsets that will wear it. At the time we thought that Microsoft is trying to find a good excuse for the loss in market share. Fewer Windows Mobile phones but better. That seemed to be the initial message.
Right now however, a Microsoft Austria spokesperson concluded that “the implication in The New York Times that Microsoft will limit the number of Windows Mobile devices is not accurate.” So Microsoft may very well say it is ready to have fewer Windows Mobile phones out there but they will not actually limit that number in any way. Which means that manufacturers are free to make more Windows Mobile phones if they want to. Or they could simply turn to Android and Symbian instead!
